Message: [QUOTE="RuffRuff, post: 5346687, member: 1268"] Really great point. The players are equally important and in most cases, coming from places where UConn has massive impact on their development. There is simply more pageantry with HS recruiting. The courtship is very different. The announcement is staged. With the portal, it’s a 30 day compact window that floods with names and it’s during the best time of year to be focusing on the games. It’s like speed dating versus a serenade. But once the kid is here it really shouldn’t feel any different. They’re just as important. [/QUOTE]
